Magical Venue

The moment I set eyes on The Hinterland I knew it was where I wanted to get married. Kristyn has turned this quaint, rustic barn into a magical, sparkling wedding venue. The lighting gives off such a romantic and intimate vibe. The grounds, surrounded by trees and the CT Horseguard, provide a unique and beautiful setting for your ceremony. We were lucky enough to find this venue early to book an autumn wedding! We were able to make the barn and reception area our own and I was able to create my perfect wedding.

Kristyn was lovely to work with. She was quick to respond and helped make my wedding dreams a reality. The day of there were a few setbacks that Kristyn helped my vendors solve and when she saw the slightest bit of worry and stress on my face, she made sure I had everything I needed and reassured me all would be okay. Everything was better than okay and we had the most perfect wedding day.

I also have to mention, The Bar, which is the bar service through this venue, had quick, professional and talented bartenders. Our guests had a great time!

Amazing!!!!

The Hinterland staff was helpful and responsive throughout my planning process. Kristyn saved me from stressing so much, she has an eye for detail and helped me pull everything together and kept me at ease leading up to and through our wedding on 10/6/23. I went with their vendor recommendations for food, florals and DJ and they were perfect. They had an already established relationship with those vendors and experience on site which made the process even more seamless. The space is so well decorated already I just accentuated it with some of my own crafted items. I added on a tent last minute due to rain and it only sprinkled but was worth it for my guests to have the extra outside space with games I had. I am so glad we had the hinterland to create memories we will hold forever of the one of the best days of my life!!

Jack & Jill shower

Cannot recommend this place enough!! My fiancé and I had our Jack & Jill party here in May and it was the perfect place for it. All of our guests were raving about the barn and absolutely loved it! We had plenty of space for music, food, dancing and yard games. The hinterland is rustic but still so elegant and you can’t go wrong with this beautiful venue for any type of event.
